Benches overlooking the Großer Brombachsee

Highlight • Viewpoint

Great lake, great for cycling around and very suitable for families because of the many playgrounds, sandy areas and places to stop for a bite to eat.

Bergweg Forest Path

Highlight • Trail

There are excellent, signposted cycling and hiking trails around the lake

The riverside path is easy to navigate throughout - and the elevation is low. It's great that the hiking and cycling paths are separate. There are plenty of restaurants on site. A trip to the surrounding villages is also worthwhile.

Main Dam of the Großer Brombachsee

Highlight • Structure

Beautiful swimming and water sports lake, great bike path around the lake. There are very beautiful beaches, good gastronomy and with the MS Brombachsee you can also comfortably sail across the lake.

Großer Brombachsee

Highlight • Lake

The last of the lakes in the Franconian Lake District to be flooded, the Great Brombachsee is now one of the region's main attractions. This is also due to the "MS Brombachsee", the beautiful passenger trimaran that invites you to take a trip out on the water.

But there is also a lot to experience on the shore. Five leisure facilities on the Great Brombachsee ensure that every holidaymaker gets their money's worth: The Ramsberger Strand, Pleinfeld, Allmannsdorf, Enderdorf am See and Absberg-Seespitz facilities offer everything from beach volleyball to beer gardens, children's playgrounds and sandy beaches to sailing schools. The only requirement: wind

In its valley that opens to the east, the Great Brombachsee is framed by forests. Athletes in particular love the 870 hectare water area between Absberg and Pleinfeld: surfers, kite surfers, sailors and even divers are happy here.

North Shore of Igelsbachsee

Highlight (Segment) • Lake

I think it is one of the most beautiful sections around the Great Brombachsee. Can be managed by any bike.
And there are far fewer pedestrians here.

Super great tour, where you don't need any great physical condition. The cycle paths are well described and the paths are easy to navigate.

With the mass of cyclists, pedestrians and bathers, cycling was almost impossible

School ends in Bavaria on July 26th. On the way back from Ramsau towards Frankfurt, the traffic on the motorways became bad. So a detour to the Franconian Lake District came spontaneously to mind. True to the motto: "It's better to cycle with joy than to get frustrated with traffic jams!", we made the best of it.
After fortifying ourselves …

The 🏞️ 4-lakes tour was absolutely perfect for a free Sunday on the bike today with the great sunny☀️, but still fresh weather 🚵🏽‍♀️💨.

From Gunzenhausen we went from the 🅿️ over the Altmühlüberleiter first to the large Brombachsee, then we took the Igelsbachsee and over the small Brombachsee we went through smaller towns back to the starting position ⏺️. …
